Last Friday, while some of us were attending the last of the Concerts at the Murals, others were out at Marymoor Park in Redmond watching the ecstatic spectacle of The Flaming Lips, supported by fellow Oklahomans Stardeath and White Dwarfs. Part New Years, part Christmas, part Mardi Gras, and a whole lot [...]
This past weekend, Fruit Bats, The Moondoggies, and Johnny and the Moon wrapped up a month’s worth of Concerts at the Mural, presented by KEXP and Seattle Center and consisting of four Friday evenings with nine total bands, plus six more bands during KEXP’s 7th annual BBQ. We’re all extremely sad that it’s over [...]

Once again, a large crowd gathered at the Mural Amphitheater for another free show, this time featuring The Dodos and Army Navy. You can check out a few videos of the evening [...]

Rock festivals can be an awesome, appalling joussaince — an embarrassment of riches in which most of its value is suffering. The 2009 Capitol Hill Block Party was a perfectly organic construct of balancing personal pleasures and community celebration within the city, without too much pain. In other words, it was a ton [...]

Friday night. Neumos. John In The Morning at Night. Throw Me The Statue. Iran. U.S.E. Pela. An unbelievable lineup with a unstoppable dance party mix from DJ Michele. A full house of KEXP supporters. Words can’t describe how great the night was. But maybe these photos can from Brittney Bush Bollay:

Well, it’s finally over and everyone’s back home salving their sunburns and getting caught up on some much needed sleep. By all accounts, the 2009 Sasquatch Music Festival was a raging, and raving (thanks to Girl Talk and Chromeo), success. For those brave enough to weather all three days, the last day payed off with [...]
Murder City Devils
Another amazing day at the Gorge, which alone would be incredible, but with a lineup of bands like Nine Inch Nails, Janes’ Addiction, TV On The Radio, Of Montreal, Calexico, M83, The Avett Brothers, The Walkmen, The Wrens, Viva Voce, and so many others, there’s no way it could be better. Sunday at [...]
